Otta Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 Not your fault Dopamine1979, EP has moved the goal posts so many times in this thread that it now resembles Aussie rules.

Jeremy Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I guess Bob Marley's OKish but there's plenty of reggae I prefer. And all that rastafari crap is idiotic beyond belief.Music for teenagers to get stoned to while calling each other "man".

El Pibe Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I have to say Reggae's not really my thing, but he did write some classic/lovely songs which you'd have to have a hard heart to get offended by.

Jeremy Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 He did indeed write some classic songs, I cannot disagree. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/49901-most-overrated-bands-artists-thread/page/7/#findComment-789814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Pibe Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I don't know if that's enough for Universal acclaim though.If writing a classic were, then Rene & Renata probably qualify for universal acclaim ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/49901-most-overrated-bands-artists-thread/page/7/#findComment-789827 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otta Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 I loved the Killers first album, but (for me) they've gone down hill ever since.In fact my favourite song of theirs is the opening track on the debut album, so they've literally gone downhill from there.Ooooooo, new thread.

titch juicy Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 The Killers had one or two half-decent indie pop songs on their first album and everything else they've recorded has been (to borrow a Stephen Fry-ism) rusty stool water.

Jah Lush Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton. Both of whom have been creatively dead since the 70s, unlike their contempory Jeff Beck and fellow Yardbird who has continued to explore and generally not be boring. This from 2001.
